Want to write for us? Engadget is looking for a full-time, New York-based Editor

Yes, it’s true, Engadget is hiring. In fact, we’re looking for a full-time editor. There are a few requirements which differ from our usual call for applications, so we wanted to state them up front: we’re hiring a full-time, New York-based editor, and we want that person to have previous experience writing about technology professionally. We’d love to hear from you, so read on below to find out how to apply.

Engadget’s next reader meetup is this Friday, February 25th in San Francisco!

That’s right human beings — it’s happening again! The Engadget crew is getting together their best party outfits and shipping out west for another installment of our fabulous reader meetups. Our last event in NYC drew loads of people and was an all around blast, and the San Francisco installment is sure to be just as explosive (or maybe more? c’mon… show us what you’ve got). This time around we’re partnering with Sprint, as well as Sony PlayStation, Motorola, HP, Roku, Samsung, VUDU, RIM, Sling, Sonos, HTC, Corning, Sphero, OnLive, Plantronics, Snapstick, and more to bring you a night of gadget geeking, giveaways, delicious foodstuffs, and some awesome music (provided by none other than our podcast producer, Trent Wolbe). Also, a whole mess of the Engadget editors will be on hand to entertain and inform, so if you have any pressing questions — jot them down!

The all ages shindig will take place at City View at The Metreon, which is located conveniently in downtown SF. If you’re a nerd in the city, you most likely already know what we’re talking about. The doors will open at 6:30PM, and capacity is limited to 1200 people — so if you want to get inside, get there early!

Update: Whoops! Looks like the previously mentioned sweepstakes have ended (a trip for two to the event). Congrats to the winners! Don’t stress though, there should be plenty of room for everyone (provided it’s no more than 1200 humans).

New super-limited edition eBoy / Engadget shirts now available! (update: SOLD OUT!)

You asked, and we’ve delivered! Once again, Engadget has teamed up with the brilliant eBoy to bring you a super-duper limited edition T-shirt which will wow and delight family and friends alike. As you can see from the image above, the new shirt is based on our CES / reader meetup graphic that’s been doing the rounds on the site, featuring nearly all of the Engadget crew toying with some real (and not-so-real) tech. The eBoy crew tells us this is their most color-heavy shirt ever produced (a 9+1 process), which is pretty nifty. We think it’s a nice companion to our CES 2011 coverage, and makes a wonderful addition to any fashion plate’s wardrobe. The shirts come in small, medium, large, and extra large, and can be had for $30US (plus $10 shipping) — but really, can you put a price on looking good? If you’d like to order, follow along after the break and use our fancy PayPal e-commerce system. Also, we ship WORLDWIDE!

Update: The last time we had shirts, they sold out in about 30 minutes. We have more this time, but still a very small quantity. If you want one, we suggest you get in fast.

Update 2: Extra large is sold out!

Update 3: We’re sold out of everything! If you didn’t find your size, there may still be some available on the eBoy site — check it out HERE!

Engadget’s gear of CES 2011

Another year, another CES — and another mountain of new gear put to the test of rapidfire media production for 20+ hours a day. CES 2011 was Engadget’s biggest and best ever, and while we didn’t use that many new tools from CES 2010, we did try some interesting new things — and a lot of updated old reliables. Head past the break for our full rundown!

This day in Engadget: CES extravaganzas galore

Welcome to ‘This day in Engadget‘, where we crack open the archives and take a whimsical look back at the memories and moments of our storied past. Please join us on this trip down random access memory lane.

If you’ve not been living under a boulder for the past week or so, you’ve probably noticed that CES has been going on in glorious, illness-inducing Las Vegas, Nevada. The thing is, Engadget has been running this game for a long, long time, and though historically things are usually wrapping up around the 9th of January every year, the remnants, the wrap-ups, and the gadget hangovers are almost as fun to look back on as the show itself. So, as we wrap up a truly outstanding CES 2011, we thought we’d take a look back at previous CES wrap-ups, some big days, and some downright weird ones, in this nostalgic episode of This day in Engadget.
